Merrin's body goes limp as she is pulled under by the tentacled horror, her mace falling to the bottom of the pit. The creature's gaze remains fixed on Merrin, its bioluminescent markings illuminating the water around it. The torch held by Varikka casts flickering shadows on the walls, revealing a section of the ancient carvings that seem to pulse with a faint, eerie energy. The Devourer of Light's roar grows louder, its malevolent presence closing in around them like a shroud.

I struggle against the tentacles, my lungs burning for air as I'm dragged deeper into the frigid water. The creature's bioluminescent markings pulse ominously in the darkness, illuminating its grotesque form. Panic rises in my chest as I realize how hopelessly outmatched I am. My mace slips from my grip, sinking into the abyss as I flail uselessly against the tentacles' relentless pull.

My vision starts to tunnel as the lack of oxygen takes its toll. The last thing I see is Seraphine's form growing distant on the shore, her mouth open in a silent scream. Then everything fades to black.
